Comment from I am Cat

Excellent

Trump is a grump? I would have said, chump...
Clinton, you're hintin', is headin' for San Quentin? ;) lol
hey, that's fun. lol
Well done... with lots of fun, but underlying sadness, because we're the ones stuck with the 'winner'... *ahem* if you want to call them that. :(
lol

I cannot argue with your observations. I liked your selection of the Clerihew and your rhymes. The photograph you chose certainly captures the grumpiness! Smiles- Joan

Comment from Sandra du Plessis

I actually feel sorry for the politicians, they make such fools of themselves in front of the whole nation, but they either don't care about what others might think of them, or they can't see when they say and do stupid things.

Thank you Sandra. Probably a little of both.

Hi, Treischel,
Excellent as far as political analysis goes. "Needs improvement" as far as figurative language goes. You should have been able to find better, more descriptive metaphors for the two candidates than "gump" and "cannot be trusted to secure her internet tools". Although the latter could be a double erotic entendre for Hillary depending where her tools are.
Your friend and colleague
Preston

Excellent

haha but in the scheme of things, it really isn't funny. It is a sad commentary on the state of US politics.

Good job on the format. You nailed it & the clown & the criminal.

Good job & thanks for sharing. Jan

Comment from Pantygynt

Excellent

I love the Hilary Clinton one but am a bit bemused by Trump (aren't we all?) You say he distains political correctness. I think you meant disdains. That is even after looking both words up. Is this a typo or am I missing something?
